| Rolling Stones--Sympathy for the Devil Jimi Hendrix--All Along the Watchtower Nowhere to Run--Martha and the Vandellas There is a little known bylaw in the U.S. Code that states that any movie that spends at least 15 minutes or more on the Vietnam War MUST use these three songs in the soundtrack. If they use less than fifteen minutes, they must use one of the above three and it should be "Sympathy for the Devil", or they should submit (in writing) a good reason to use one of the other two. FACT. Reply Back to Top |
